Four is Better

Dennis Turner "Tom..really..the influence u have had on so many lives..it always felt like there were at least four of you..i always found u a little scary..but count me among those whom u have given ur love and a kind nudge towards home. u have that gift that grows as u give it away."

An old, and each year when I say old friend it becomes more literal, friend has flattered and humbled me with his expression. We go along trying our damnedest to stay out of our own way, and even more so, out of the way of others, especially family and friends. So when a remark like the one Dennis allowed glides pleasantly by, your heart sings a little louder!
